/ck/ - Food & Cooking

is this the part where we make fun of the person who took this image?

>>16801666
You know exactly why Satan, it's what they want, the ones who worship you, they are making active efforts to demoralize the populace so they'll be less willing to fight back against depopulation

It's not a fucking communist conspiracy. The simple fact is they're hemorrhaging money and they don't want to be associated with fucking clowns. They want to be a seen as a 'serious' burger restaurant, but they can't because at the end of the day, no matter how much they change their designs, logos, architecture, etc. They're still fucking McDonalds.

>>16801705
Then bring back the arch deluxe. You gotta make your menu for adults if you want to attract adults.

>>16801705
>The simple fact is they're hemorrhaging money
explain further.

>>16801705
>t. jew brutalism enjoyer
we all know exactly why

>A corporate behemoth that changed its public image is different than the nostalgic memories of my corporate-entwined childhood
>Why is this?

Go buy some more Funko Pops to fill your spiritual void you American moron.

>>16801666
more people ate habit double cheese burger than a big mac 238vs 82 million revenue.
McDonald is on the down turn. 1 out 5 millennials never had a big mac.
They made their restaurants to make you leave.

they have a marketing team that is paid several times more than you to draw on their experience analyzing cold statistical data about what kinds of design changes increase their bottom line, and this is what all the graphs and studies show, if it wasn't working they wouldn't keep doing it

>>16801666

Why are 40 year olds on 4chan?

Boomers have infested this website since the election.

>HURR DURR WHY ARE OLD PEOPLE HERE

fucking retards. the real questions is why are zoomers here? Oh, right, you heard about it from an old person.

>>16801793
You will understand when you're a oldfag

Fucking newfag, lurkmore

As long as thwy bring back orange Hi C, they can turn the place into a stainless steel hut and I wouldnt care

>>16801666
McDonald's as a corporation does NOT sell food/drinks. They sell real estate. Most McDonald's are run by franchisees. They RENT the buildings from McDonald's and pay them a handsome chunk of their profits. In exchange the franchisee gets a relatively safe business to operate that is usually guaranteed to make money. Everyone in the world could stop eating McDonald's and it would not matter. They would just sell off their buildings, all placed in great locations, and live like gods until they die.

>>16801727
Bring back the McDLT!

>>16801793
You are literally here forever

>>16801784
>1 out 5 millennials never had a big mac.

So in other words
>80% of an entire generational cohort are our customers

And somehow this is bad for business?

it is better to be inoffensive to the point of utter blandness than to have anything for anyone to get upset over

Friendly reminder that us 40-70 year olds were using webforums, dial up BBS's and USENET before you snotty nosed brats were even concieved. It is natural to assume we would continue to do so as we get older. The same as you continue to use technology such as mobile telephones.

OH MY GOD GUYS LOOK AT THIS SOUL, I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW SOULESS AND GREY MODERN MCDONALDS ARE.

>>16801826
this is sort of true but if the franchisees can't make money they can't pay the rent, and if they can't pay the rent then corporate has to pursue the nuclear option of selling it all. plus there are corporate stores, about twenty percent of American stores (and ten percent worldwide).

so yeah, you're right...but what makes that property valuable is their ability to sling this garbage. the more garbage they sling they better the machine runs. they would rather keep the gravy train running than have to sell the land, since the land only gets more and more valuable as time goes on.

>>16801861
the fake plants and tile are kinda charming though

>>16801861
That hasn't been remodeled yet. In fact it's quite an old layput.

>>16801774
It's easier to repurpose generic functional buildings, which makes resale easier?
I mean yeah the answer is $$$ but it's not some sort of pervasion of the way businesses handle property. Restaurant chains just didn't build with resale in mind back in the day.

>>16801666
Sad grey building selling sad grey food to sad grey adults.

>>16801697
Based.

The world is getting schwabed and nobody seems to care.

>>16802189
Sounds like communism.

I'm not joking. Communist poland used to be called a "grey country" or "grey nation" because everything was so bleak, brutalist, utilitarian, grey, full of concrete and dust.

>>16802260

>>16801896
you can keep repeating this lie all you want, but it won't change the reality of the situation

>>16801666
They just remodeled my McDonald's and ruined everything. They took out the comfy leather and replaced it with metal and wooden chairs, it's bullshit

>>16802320
YOU WILL EAT THE BUGS
YOU WILL SLEEP IN THE POD

>>16802338
>YOU WILL EAT THE BUGS
literally everyone already does, in their sleep, on average
>YOU WILL SLEEP IN THE POD
apartments, the most common living setup, is a type of pod
>YOU WILL LEARN CHINESE
through my state mandated wife? sure
>YOU WILL SUCK THE FEMININE PENIS
yes

Same reason Netflix is full of grey, distopian shit and we are currently being forced into mass medical experiments.

>>16801697
>they made the McDonald's grey because of the devil
unironically take your meds

>>16802366

Bugs are retarded but not so retarded that they'll let themselves get eaten by someone not even trying to.

the more specific incarnation of baphomet, but unironically yes.

>>16801861
>OH MY GOD GUYS LOOK AT THIS SOUL,
Man that's one comfy looking picture, it's like the 90s never went away there. And yes having a bit more color than grey is soul. I guess you're one of those faggots who drive a grey car.

>>16802320
it's probably for the same reason they make city benches so uncomfortable, they don't want bums overstaying their visit.

but metal seats wont change anything. in my local mcdonalds there a nigga who brings his desktop computer with him and stays all day.

>>16801666
its a rebrand to make it more appealing to adults.the birth rate is abysmal, they can’t rely on parents of young kids as a loyal base anymore.

>>16802704
>not the regular devil, but my special hipster devil
An important distinction. Would want to schizo about the wrong devil.

>>16801666
Yes, it probably happened due to the shit economy, I remember when McDonald's had pizza and chocolate icecream. But mostly, it's because Supersize Me essentially killed the McDonald's franchise, so they had to transition into a real-estate company with clean, formal buildings they can sell if people suddenly decide they hate fastfood.

Things for adults don't advertise themselves as "for grown ups :^)" this is how little kids think

It was no longer profitable to market to kids so they shifted to teens/young adults

>>16801666
Overpopulation.
Normie society.
Culture of normies imitating success from men with souls.
Mass amount of tools to easily create, mass amount of tutorials and guides so passion and life aren't needed, enough spending force due to overpopulation to drive out anyone else with a legitimate, family-tradition business...

I could go on, but in essence you can attribute it all back to overpopulation, and distill everything from it, too.
There's also internet culture, cesspools of self-destructive mindset, cultivating the seeds of death until the self-realization of what they became causes them to choose suicide and not continuing the path of ascendancy.

And the best thing of all is that you're living in times where all the people with great minds are drowned in the ocean of those soulless retards - instead of them steering society into a right direction, they choose to hide, because having physical contact with anyone respectful is ridiculously hard.

>>16804327
all true, but the root cause is still pic rel. this is by design

>>16804327
PS.: Everyone expects some kind of great president or savior to guide men to salvation, but did any of them think that when they see what this world became all day, all night, they have absolutely no incentive to take on the role of a leader?
Because for who, and for what? For the normies to imitate success off that one individual, until their dead minds invent their own demise, again and again?

Think differently. If majority of society hasn't been capable of change for however long we've been here and major events could only be attributed to single individuals, maybe the correct step is separation of what the normies, the lemmings can interact with, as opposed to those mentally sound?

I would be convinced however that regardless of whatever solutions I or someone else like me invent, there will never be any movement. I'm convinced we've all gone into a mirror image of human history and have gotten permanently stuck in this fucking wonderland owned and fueled by Satan's imagination.

That's all I've got to rant about.
Enjoy your burgers. I'm only curious as to what kind of thoughts we'll have 10 years into the future.

>>16804338
Want to know the irony of the situation?

The Jews have done, are doing and will do everything the white man should have done in their place.
And that's even abiding by the Americanized, mongrelized dictionary of stolen words, twisted definitions and everything else your cultural terror golem spawns on the planet.

Lovely, isn't it?
The solution isn't even that much difficult, either. You're just all too stupid, too mirrored to grasp it. Irony on a planetary scale.

>>16804335
Lovely self-portrait there anon.

>>16804345
Material power alone cannot replace humanity. Theirs is a false ascension realized through wicked means and to deny this only reveals your true face, deceiver.
